What Makes Traffiglove TD02 Gloves Eco-Friendly?

Traditional nitrile gloves can take over 100 years to biodegrade on a landfill. TD02 Gloves degrade by an amazing 82% within 90 days, meaning they do not sit in landfills and nature creating harmful toxins and damaging the planet. 

Traffiglove have also committed to sourcing their materials from environmentally and socially ethical rubber tree plantation areas. Over 60% of the rubber used in the manufacturing of a TD02 Glove is sourced locally in Sri Lanka. 

What Are The Benefits of Latex?

Latex as a compound offers a high level of protection against viruses, chemicals and other potentially harmful bacteria. Latex offers amazing dexterity, allowing you to complete incredibly precise and tactile tasks without fuss. Latex is often described as having a "second skin" feel to it due to its snug, compact feel. 

How Does the TD02 Biodegrade?

As landfills vary greatly, the claims that certain other manufacturers make about the biodegradability of their gloves can be dubious. The TD02 uses a unique tri-polymer formula designed to speed up the decomposition process. This construction helps to attract microbial organisms that break down material.

TD02 Gloves have been proven to biodegrade by an incredible 82% over 90 days, making them the ideal choice for anyone seeking peace of mind over their or their businesses carbon footprint. 

Is the TD02 Packaging Recyclable?

Yes, the packaging TD02 Gloves are delivered in is made from 100% recycled material and is 100% recyclable.
